Snag a 250GB PS3 for $299 While You Can

[JMcEntegart]

Earlier this week, Sony announced the addition of a 350GB and 160G versions of its PS3 console. Though the company didn't explicitly say it would be discontinuing the old 250GB and 120GB capacities, we kind of just assumed they would.

Because the PS3 uses 2.5" drives, and the Spinpoint F3 is a 3.5" drive?

i just get what the big deal is buy the cheaper one and stick a new bigger and faster notebook drive in. heck a 320GB 7200rpm western digital costs about 60 bucks.

We've had it for a few days and I still can't get used to it! Everytime I check comments I wonder if I've accidentally clicked the wrong link. Sometimes the penny drops before I have the chance to see the by-line, other times I wonder if there are two Jane McEntegarts writing tech news. It's been a confusing week!!

Got my 250GB from Wal-Mart a few months back. Came with two games. $300.

I just wish they put more effort into their web browser. Specifically flash performance, which is equal to a 1GHz Pentium 3 most times.
I also wish you could set F@H to background (idle clocks only, so you can still play games/whatever and have it running, like I can with my PC, without a noticeable performance hit).

I won't snag one, but I know a few people that would.

Because 98% of the users can't even manage legos. +1 😉

250 gig is more than adequate, I just need 10 gig for other os. Oh yea this model don't support that.Next!

I'm really curious now: Is anyone actually stupid enough to buy stuff from a spammer's post? I mean seriously, anyone who does deserves to get ripped off/have their identity stolen/etc...

Guess some do in order for them to post these things so often. It must bring in some money *shrug* who knows.
